MouseX::AttributeHelpers provides commonly used attribute helper methods for more specific types of data.

As seen in the SYNOPSIS, you specify the extension via the metaclass parameter.

This points to a hashref that uses provider for the keys and method for the values. The method will be added to the object itself and do what you want.

This points to a hashref that uses provider for the keys and has two choices for the value:

You can supply { method => \@args } for the values. The method will be added to the object itself (always using @args as the beginning arguments).

Another approach to curry a method provider is to supply a coderef instead of an arrayref. The code ref takes $self, $body, and any additional arguments passed to the final method.
